It’s not about pontificating. It’s about moving people or an organization somewhere. ● Some are just starting out and you’re asking: Can I do this? ● Some are midway and you’re asking: Can I sustain this? ● Some are near the finish line and you’re asking: Can I take this across the finish line? Can I transition this to the next leader? ● 10% of you are considering quitting what you’re doing right now. ● Armed with enough humility, leaders can learn from anyone. Pastors can learn with business leaders and business leaders can learn from pastors. The old can learn from the young, the young from the old. ● The Intangibles of Leadership by Richard Davis ● It’s these leadership intangibles that set leaders apart. The first intangible: grit. ● Why do lesser talented outperform their peers? They have grit – passion & perseverance over the long haul. It’s steely tenacity demonstrated over decades. Gritty people expect progress to be difficult. ● The Little Engine that Could – “I think I can” ● Abraham Lincoln had grit. He ended the scourge of slavery and brought our country together after a bloody civil war. ● Nelson Mandela had it. Gandhi had it. The question today is: Do you have it? ● Grit Assessment Test – http://willowcreek.com/Survey 2 ● Can grit be developed? Yes it can be developed. The arch enemy of grit is ease. Grit development demands difficulty. ● Task assigned to son that was difficult on purpose. ● Most elite leaders push themselves physically. Jim Collins is a rock climber. Richard Branson is a windsurfer. Condoleeza Rice works out every morning at 5am. Why? Overcoming physical challenges is one way to grow grit. ● They volunteered for extra work assignments and then showed steely determination in carrying it out. ● “Don’t just deliver the required result. Over deliver and over deliver every time.” – Jack Welch ● Hang around people who have grit because it can rub off. ● When senior leaders over deliver, demonstrate grit, teammates notice and develop an appetite for grit. ● Gritty organizations are unstoppable. The second intangible: selfawareness ● Young pastor that led churches to drowning debt. The better question: who are you trying to best? He was totally unaware that the decisions he was making everyday were tethered to his past. ● In the midst of exciting time, young CEO quit unexpectedly. Her parents were alcoholics and would fight. She tried to keep fights from happening. When board was divided, she couldn’t handle it. ● Blind spots in the lives of leaders. Leaders can believe they are great at something when everyone on the team knows that it is not true. ● All of us leaders have 3.4 blindspots. You know how that’s true. When I said that, you immediately said, not me. ● The danger with blind spots is that you have no idea that they exist. ● I thought I was awesome under pressure. Female colleague said, “I’m not getting on the crazy train.” ● “When you overwork, you’re not happy unless everyone around you is overworking too.” ● I walked quickly past a guy washing a window and whistling. I thought, “He ought to be as miserable as me.” ● Once I identified it as a blind spot, I could move it into a weakness category. ● Do you have any blind spots? 3
